Abstract

One of the aims of our paper “The Paradox of Suicide Prevention” is to promote greater discourse on suicide prevention, with a particular focus on the mental health models used for the identification of, and interventions with, individuals who come into contact with tertiary mental health services. Obegi (2023)’s comments [1] raise a number of helpful points regarding the terminology we used to describe aspects of suicide prevention in relation to how these terms are traditionally used in epidemiology and prevention science. Obegi’s questions provide an opportunity to reinforce and clarify the aims and message of our paper.
